The ERD97P21-U receiver is a stand-alone unit capable of

controlling pan/tilt, camera, and lens functions and is designed to
be used with systems that transmit Pelco P protocol. Standard
features include 80 presets, frame scan, and random scan.

The ERD97P21-U is unique in that input voltage, pan/tilt voltage,

and camera voltage are set internally for 24/120/230 VAC using
labeled plug-in connectors. Enclosure voltage is always the same as
the input voltage to the receiver. All units are factory configured for
120 VAC input and 24 VAC camera voltage and are shipped with an
attached 120 VAC cable. All connections to the motherboard and
option board are made through easy-to-use terminal blocks with
screw terminals.
